Editor Tomomi Tada's favorite paper products

Even if you can understand the word "editing", it seems that it is very deep and difficult to explain its meaning in one word.

This is what is written on the website of the Osaka editorial office MUESUM.

``We work on a variety of projects with the idea that ``editing is like connecting stars in the night sky and naming constellations.''

Think of the stars in the night sky for a moment. When the surroundings are bright, it is difficult to see stars.
But by looking closely and changing locations,
Stars that I didn't even notice existed begin to emerge.

Next to the flashy and strong messages, there is a quiet charm that shines.
Don't forget what's really important.
By connecting seemingly unconnected dots, we can create new value, surprise, and joy.
Our editing begins with "looking." ”

When you look at the work of the representative, Tomomi Tada, you can get a glimpse of the work that unravels rigid ways of thinking and attitudes, or connects and weaves together distant points. And in the process of doing so, I feel a sense of perspective, as if I was carefully gazing at a light that suddenly turned on, like a firefly.

In recent years, not only the editorial office but also the publishing company are jointly operated.
We asked Mr. Tada, who seems to have a lot to do with paper in all his work, which paper products he is particularly fond of.

It's called a "chopstick bag" .

``I want to keep these fun stories while eating, the ideas that come out through dialogue💡, etc.'' But I don't want to take out my IC recorder or memo pad.At times like that, I always use my chopstick bag or paper. Paper products on the table, such as placemats and paper napkins, are helping me.The photo is a memo I wrote during a meal while I was planning my co-authored work, ``How to Create Japan's Future as Seen from Shodoshima'' (2014/Seibundo Shinkosha). It’s 📝!”

That's what he said.

I see~! If you think about it, there may be nothing that has as many secondary uses as chopstick bags. You can make it into origami, use it as a chopstick rest, use it as a memo ...

I feel like stationery manufacturers and chopstick bag manufacturers have hidden hints for product development! Thank you for the eye-opening and fun information on paper products!

Now, we asked Mr. Tada about some of his favorite Taisei Shiki Seisakusho items.


"PICTURE BAR"

“I find it useful because it allows me to display flyers and small artwork without damaging them, just like arranging flowers.For me, it is like a vase!”

Thank you for your wonderful answer!
I look forward to working with you.
